Edible Homemade Playdough Is a Fun Sensory Activity
Here on Ruffles and Rain Boots, we’re no stranger to homemade playdough. When my daughter was younger, it was one of her favorite kid crafts to set up – she’d play for an HOUR!
Now that she’s older, playdough is a sensory activity we set up in the late afternoon. In fact, we often set it up while I’m cooking dinner. To change up our fun, we decided to whip up a batch of homemade edible playdough.
Easy Playdough Recipe Ingredients (no Cream of Tartar)
We needed an easy edible playdough recipe that was also quick to come together, so we grabbed a few kitchen staples and went to work!
- cake mix (1 box, we used white but any will do)
- 1/2 cup of canola oil
- powdered sugar (confectioner’s sugar)
- 3 tablespoons of cornstarch
- fun sprinkles (optional)

Storage of Homemade Edible Playdough
This edible playdough recipe should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. My daughter packs it up herself and puts it on the bottom shelf.
There is a lot of debate on how long you can store edible playdough, so I’m going to tell you what we do ’round here. We keep edible playdough for about 4-5 days before tossing it, but I know friends who keep it up to a week and a half.
